Originally titled The Bride, it was produced by Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert's Ghost House Pictures, with Butler writing the script. However, Raimi and Tapert exited due to scheduling conflicts. By 2020, the film's director, producer and new title were announced. Casting occurred from May to October 2021, with filming beginning that September in Budapest. The Invitation was released theatrically in the United States on August 26, 2022, by Sony Pictures Releasing.

It was a box-office success, grossing $38 million worldwide on a $10 million budget. ()
